Sample code for executing an AJAX request using jQuery.

CorsRequest.js

$.ajax({
    url: 'MASHAPE-URL', // The URL to the API. You can get this by clicking on "Show CURL example" from an API profile
    type: 'POST', // The HTTP Method
    data: {}, // Additional parameters here
    dataType: 'json',
    success: function(data) { alert(JSON.stringify(data)); },
    error: function(err) { alert(err); },
    beforeSend: function(xhr) {
	xhr.setRequestHeader("X-Mashape-Authorization", "YOUR-MASHAPE-KEY"); // Enter here your Mashape key
    }
});

Thanks for this! By the way, the second "t" in your "dataType" parameter is lowercase.
